Note: Some of Mr. Bacher's paintings not having been signed by him,
Mrs. Bacher will be very happy to give a written guaranty to the purchaser
that the painting is his work. Application for such guaranty may be made
through the Walpole Galleries, No. 10 East 49th Street, New York.
The collection of these fifty paintings is characterized "Exhibition and
Sale," as it is practically the first exhibition made of Mr. Bacher's paintings.
As Mr. Lefevre has commented in the foreword, Mr. Bacher "was never interested
in exhibiting his work . . . and discriminating collectors bought his pictures
before the paint was dry."
It is safe to say that no lover of pictures who buys one of these paintings to-day
but will congratulate himself in future on the possession of a landscape so sensi-
tively rendered and with the direct simplicity of Nature, whether clouded with snow,
brilliant with Autumn coloring or soft with the promise of Spring.

OTTO H. BACHER
Otto H. Bacher, painter and etcher, was born in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1856.
He died in Bronxville, N. Y., in 1909. He began his art career in Cleveland
at sixteen, leaving in 1878 for Europe. He studied in Munich with Duve-
neck, in Paris in the Julian School and with Lefebvre, Boulanger and
Carolus-Duran. He was an A. N. A., and a member of the Society of Paint-
er-Etchers of England.
A great injustice is done to Otto H. Bacher by whoever regards his
etchings as his most characteristic work. That he was one of the great
etchers of the Nineteenth Century is one of the common-places of the
world of art : yet Bacher was essentially a painter. He expressed himself
more intimately, more interestingly, indeed more completely in his paint-
ings. To an extraordinary mastery of the technique of his art he joined a
love of truth and an intolerance of affectation that made him one of the
most individualistic of painters as he was one of the most interesting of
men. He did not seek to find new genres, but he ventured into new fields
constantly and always he produced something worth while, something that
no one else could have achieved. Painters are to-day applauded for doing
what Bacher did — and did far better — twenty years ago. He was never
interested in exhibiting his work. Had he been less of an artist and more
of a business man his fame to-day would be as great as a painter as it is as
an etcher. In a way it was a mistake that discriminating collectors bought
his pictures before the paint was dry for it kept the public from knowing
the work of Bacher as well as it deserved. His paintings are found in the
collections of intelligent picture lovers like the late John Hay, Alfred
Corning Clark and many of his friends, but it is a safe prediction that
even as his etchings are daily more prized the world over, so will his fame
as a painter grow and his pictures become more valuable, like those of his
friend Twachtman, for it takes not only time but death for a great painter
to gain honor in his own country. Edwin Lefevre.
